Thanks. Still trying to get the sound files to work, I have background and narration, but not the music.

Might be an issue with the Archive.org version, not sure. I know that Tales of Game's website had their security cert expire a week or two ago, but it seems alright. Here's the mediafire link for their most recent version of the game, which looks like it might be more recent (2014 vs 2008 ), but is confusingly labeled as v120 rather than archive's v420. But given that it's Tales of Game's, that might be intentional.

Working now. Thanks man. Someone mentioned that Null should play this in the MATI thread and I forgot how it's not a terrible JRPG. I think the save stations are based on some autists forum posts.

Prodeus is doing some really neat things that I like. Very, very simple things that I am surprised that I haven't seen before.

There's a world map like in Doom, but you can go back and play levels again to find missed secrets and ore(used to buy weapons/upgrades). That's why early maps have ammunition for weapons that you don't have at that point. Makes sense.

The two mobility upgrades are double jump and (air) dash, after a certain point in the game these are unlocked and can be purchased. In the maps before getting those there were spots that seemed impossible to get to, because they were and suddenly it all makes sense. This isn't some boring ploy where they just expect you to replay the level again, no, with new weapons and gameplay experience all the enemies are flattened instantly while you explore. The mobility upgrades really opens things up and allows you to blast through and sequence break the shit out of the levels and the game expects that, the levels are made for that.

I really, really like this lite-lite-lite-lite-lite metroidvania aspect and wish there would be further upgrades for mobility or possibly ability upgrades because this only applies to the first 8-10 levels.

I have not played Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick for a very long time so i two questions:
1. I am looking to experience as much as possible of the game this time, anyone know what kind of build would help to do so?
2. Which companions are more interesting overall?

Square Enix announced a physical collection of the Pixel Remaster Final Fantasy games - For $75 - PLUS shipping, so $100 US, or more Canadian.

(The limited edition is *$250*)

On top of that, they're limited, so people who wanted the standard edition missed out.

What a fucking bunch of retards Square Enix are.

You know what's funny? For years I've had it in my head that Square Enix should make a set of each Final Fantasy game with its own leather-bound case, and each one would come with a copy of the very first release of the game, alongside whatever's the best updated modernized version with the extra dungeons. Make it feel real nice and classy, magnetic closures on the sides and a faux velvet interior, along with a little booklet about the game. Each one's leather a different color, tastefully toned to each logo's color - Final Fantasy III's with a cyan tone, IV's in purple, VI's in red. Sell 'em all in a little box set that would actually look great on a bookshelf.

A lenticular cover is one of the bonuses for dropping a mother fucking $260 on this? A lenticular cover? Like they gave away for free with Crash Bandicoot 2?

Fuckin'... yeah, they sure know how to take advantage of their fans. It's a ripoff, it's full of the usual consoomer shit like artbooks and vinyls, whatever, I don't care, but man, can there just be a single collector's edition out there, somewhere, that isn't just cut and pasted from a template? Undertale had a 14 karat gold music box necklace and that was just $60, and you mean to tell me that a couple of vinyl records kicks up the price by nearly $200? Fuck on outta here.

You know what? Forget the money, man, just give us something that's not totally useless or trite. Throw in some dish towels embossed with character sprites, or like, one of those singing toothbrushes that plays overworld themes. Something I've never seen in a collector's edition before. Even Call of Duty managed to pull that off, tossing in paracord wristbands and RC cars. Final Fantasy's one of the biggest video game franchises in the fuckin' world, and you mean to tell me that the original six aren't worth any more than some fuckin' vinyls, an art book, and plastic figurines? Show some fuckin' dignity, Square Enix. I know you greedy fucks are all about the benjamins, but you wanna make more money on your golden goose? Treat it like it's fuckin' special. Make your cash grab feel like a bona fide celebration. Not this cynical consoomer shit. Yeah, it will sell, and I'm certain it'll sell big, but associating your anthology with a buncha chintzy bullshit for streamers to show off is just fuckin' gross.

But you know what's the worst part? I got no real suggestions. I'm sure this is exactly the best way to pull the most money possible out of the Pixel Remasters, because consoomers will consoom regardless of quality, and I just have to sit here being mad at the internet, donning a stack of tophats, coping and seething because I can't get my fancy pants leather bound copy of FFVI with both the Woolsey translation and the bonus dungeons on a Switch cartridge.

Why the fuck would you want an artbook of some of the ugliest deviantart tier sprite edits on earth?

I was going to suggest that they do a "pixel remaster" of ff7 but then I realized that the chinese already did that (as an ACTUAL FAMICOM GAME) and some autists made patches that translate it to english and optionally make it more authentic.

So after buying out the guys who made Risk of Rain & Risk of Rain 2 Gearbox is ready to start milking the franchise.

Risk of Rain Returns

I mean.... I'm down....but I really have to see what they add in first. The first Risk of Rain is great but getting really long in the tooth.

Remnant from the ashes is onsale. Kinda interested in it. Is it actually like a souls genre or is more of a looter shooter type? Anyone recommend it?

It's neither, really. The levels are semi-random and have loot, but each piece is unique - you'll be getting, say, a set laser cannon, shotgun and heavy armour rather than different variations of such dropping from mobs. There's a dodge roll but that's basically where the comparisons with Dark Souls stop.

I'd suggest watching some footage on YouTube, but do so for single player and multiplayer. It's a much sillier, frantic experience with a group.

Ah alright. I don't like destiny type games and people seemed to make it out to be more of a looter game where you're doing the same stuff a lot. I'd be playing solo and so the coop also was a flag to me I may not end up liking it. Should have played it when it was on gamepass
 
I don't know where else to say this, so I will say it here.

It's starting to dawn on me how truly pozzed New Blood Interactive's fan following is, from all the tranny, LGBT-adjacent, terminally online children who continually churn out low effort memes and Tumblr-ass art and comics for their games – ALL of their catalog of games – and I can't help but question how and why the hell these people are so rabid for New Blood specifically.

Is there some specific brand of autism that just automatically makes anything "retro" styled immediately appealing to these people, regardless of the subject material? This is some Homestuck-type of obsessive shit.

The trannies are all turbo-nerd coom brained incels obsessed with violence and toys from their childhood. They're examplary consoomers with a boner to grind for money.

Mario Tennis for the Nintendo 64 still has the best soundtrack and tennis court styles that I’ve ever played in my life. Second best goes to Mario Golf.
 
Finished Cult of The Lamb recently, gotta say- I really enjoyed it despite the bugs and glitches I experienced every once in a while. Now give me a game that is just an endless cult management sim.
